Turbulent kinetic energy and its vertical flux were measured at two heights over a paddy field. The vertical transport of turbulent kinetic energy was always downward right above the paddy field and was frequently downward at higher levels within a few metres above the crop.

Turbulence statistics, including higher order moments, in the surface layer over plant canopies were compared with those observed over several different surfaces, using a nondimensional height (zd)/z(,. The values of (zd)/z,, extend over a very wide range from 10" over plant canopies to 10' over the
Height dependency of statistics of horizontal and vertical wind direction fluctuations over plant canopies have been studied, using observational data in the surface layer over paddy fields. Vertical wind directions just above plant canopies have significant positive average values and large standar
The budget equations of turbulent kinetic energy and shear stress contain interaction terms of velocity-pressure and velocity-pressure gradient. These terms were estimated in the surface layer using the air pressure observed at the surface and wind velocity components over plant canopies. The magnit
